GSAP
The professional-grade animation toolkit, now free including all plugins.
What it is
GSAP (GreenSock Animation Platform) is the animation library behind many award-winning websites. Timelines, ScrollTrigger, SplitText, Flip, MorphSVG and the rest are all free to use since Webflow acquired it. It works in any framework or none.
Why it’s here
When you want the scroll-driven, cinematic stuff you see on Awwwards sites, this is the tool. It's more imperative than Motion, so it suits vanilla JS and complex sequences better than routine React UI.
Best for
- scroll-driven storytelling
- complex animation sequences
- SVG animation
- marketing sites
